When hot and humid weather comes into play, the one thing that suffers the most is your make up. All your efforts to look flawless and perfect go waste if your make up ends up smudging. But, you do not need to keep your beloved make up box inside. Take a look at our simple hacks to help your make up stay put.
Use a Primer
When the weather is hot and humid, make sure you use a primer so that your make-up stays in place. Not only does it help your make-up stay on your face for a longer duration, but it also helps your face in staying oil free. Whenever you apply a primer, wait for at least 10 to 15 minutes before putting on make-up.
Moisturize
When we say moisturize, we are not asking you to use a winter moisturizer. The idea of using a moisturizing lotion is to keep your skin hydrated. The only thing you need to ensure is to use a light moisturizer with less or no oil content in it.
Use Only Waterproof Products
If the weather is too humid outside and you have an oily skin, use only waterproof products. Nowadays, there are many products that are even tear and sweat proof. Reach out for such products when the humidity levels are a little too high.
Say yes to BB Creams
Instead of going for heavy foundations as your make-up base, you could make BB creams or tinted moisturizers your new best friend. This way your face won’t look too pancaked and your make-up will also last for a longer duration.
No Oil Based Products
When the weather is hot and humid, avoid oil based cosmetic products at all costs. Oil base make-up does not last long when the humidity levels are high. Oil based products also tend to clog your pores, so you would rather not use them.
No Powdered Products
Powdered products do not last that long during hot and humid weather conditions. Opt for liquid, gel or cream based products, so that they last long and do not cake away. Whether it is eye shadows, blushes or foundations, do not use powdered ones.
These make-up hacks will surely make you look like a million bucks!
